Identified projects, wrote proposals, managed the design, fabrication and start-up testing of remotely operated specialty equipment on for use in high hazard areas. All contracts were Firm Fixed Price contracts for design, procurement, fabrication, testing and startup support. Remotely operated Brokk 180 with tooling and implements to dismantle ductwork and radioactive piping remotely. CO2 vessel for storage and transfer of liquid and gaseous CO2 and generation and transfer of CO2 pellets. Remotely operated equipment to chisel out and vacuum pickup highly radioactive grouted material from the highest contaminated cell at the the Hanford Site. Operators had to work while viewing through 5 foot lead lined windows 20 feet above the floor with the aid of radioactive insensitive cameras. Trained the operators with a full mockup and provided technical oversight during all demolition operations. Remotely operated equipment for the retrieval and repackaging of highly radioactive “Sludge” from a spent fuel rod pool.
